A book of all your favorite bedtime stories with a twist

A few days later. In the Facility.
The blood transfusion between Antonia and the four kids has been completed. Today is the relocation day. Jessy was excited about Antonia and the kids.
After here break time from the clinic, she went to the room where the woman and her ward were waiting for her. Jessy will personally accompany them in the Habitat to see their new home.
She opened the door delighted to see Antonia and the kids smiling brightly at her. "Ready to go to your new home, kids?" she asked.
"Yesssssss... were ready!" they answered in unison.
Jessy went to Antonia's side. "How are you? How does it feel being human?" she asked.
Antonia was all smile. "I guess it's good, I no longer craved human blood and I can finally live side by side with humans and able to live the way they live. The human foods taste delicious too! I'm excited about the bright future waiting ahead for the children!" she answered.
"Okay, that's good! Let's go now to the Habitat. Kids, follow me!" Jessy said, smiling at the children.
They followed Jessy holding their bags of clothing in their hands.
They went to the tunnel that linked the Habitat and the Facility. A few minutes later, they reached the end of the tunnel, which opened up inside a room leading them to the conference room.
Jessy brought them inside the 25 square meter room, with five bunk beds, a closet, a bathroom, a kitchenette, a sofa bed, a small verandah with a nice view of the pool area.
The kids were loving their new residence because everything was new, clean and shiny, they opened the glass door leading to the veranda and stared excitedly at the pool area were some of the kids can be seen bathing and playing in the water slide, the children's faces were filled with amazement.
Antonia was roaming her eyes around her new surroundings. Her smile shows that she was satisfied with their new abode. It looks ten times better than the tiny room inside the Facility. From where she was standing she can see the sun shining brightly outside.
The room although lacking in space... yet the lively and welcoming atmosphere makes up for it, it will be their home sweet home from now on.
Jessy examined Antonia's face. "Do you like this room, Antonia?" she asked.
"Yes! Very much! I can't ask for more!" Antonia nodded her head in gladness, tears of gratitude were forming in her eyes, she felt grateful for the new life that was given to them.
Antonia hugged Jessy tightly and cried in the younger woman's shoulder. Jessy rubbed the woman's back trying to make her stop crying.
She waited for the older woman to finish crying.
"I'm sorry I was not able to stop my tears from falling, it's tears of happiness and gladness," Antonia explained after a while.
Jessy smiled at the older woman. "It's okay, no big deal. If you need a shoulder to cry on, look for me," she said trying to comfort the woman and offer her friendly support. She was a bit luckier because she has her parents and Adam to talk to, Antonia, on the other hand, is going solo raising five kids on her own and that is a very difficult situation to tackle daily.
She called out for the children. "Okay kids, let's finish the tour, there's still a lot of amenities that we need to explore in this residential complex called Habitat..."
They exited the room and proceed to the outside... they passed the pool area, the basketball and tennis area, then they went to the mini-park.
They strolled towards the inner part of the park, the children's face was awestruck, they can now walk under the glare of the sun, in their previous life being a vampire, it's one thing they cannot do.
"Hooray! I can finally walk under the mighty sun!" one of the boys said.
"Wow! This is amazing!" the children shouted in glee.
"Let's go climb the trees!" suggested one of the boys.
"Not today, boys!" Antonia reprimanded them.
Jessy saw Granny Alicia sitting alone in the bench under the shade of the tree, her all-time favorite spot in the mini-park.
She walked towards the old woman, the kids and Antonia was following her from behind.
Once she reached Alicia's side she introduces the old woman to her companions. "Okay girls and boys, I want to introduce you Granny Alicia, my friend..."
"Granny Alicia I would like you to meet Antonia and her five adopted kids... children say hello to Granny Alicia!" she said.
The children looked at the old woman and smiled their brightest smile. "Hello, Granny, nice meeting you!"
Alicia returns their smile. "Hello, kids...Hello, Antonia...nice meeting you all!"
The kids were getting restless...they ask Antonia to accompany them towards the end of the park...Antonia humored them.
Jessy and Alicia were left alone on the bench.
"Is that all her children?" Alicia asked.
"No. Those children are spoils of war. They were orphaned, Antonia got a big heart and was kind enough in adopting them all and stand as their mother. So, I kind of take pity of their sad and pitiful flight and become their benefactor," Jessy explained.
Alicia nodded her head liking what he heard from the girl. "Antonia is a good woman and so are you, that put me into shame, when I'm still in my prime all I care about is following my dreams, exploring the world and chasing hot vampire hunk. That's all I care about. I have no real sympathy for others, I don't care about others, that is who I am. You girls are beyond extraordinary...I'm truly impressed!"
Jessy smiled. "How about now, Granny? It's not too late yet to start caring for others. Antonia surely needed an extra hand to guide and nurture the children, your presence in their lives is very much welcome!"
"Huh? Me—?" Alicia pointed at herself. "What can this old hag do to improve the lives of those children?" she was already thinking of herself as a useless old woman no longer useful for everyone.
Jessy smiled and wrapped her arms affectionately around the old woman.
"Granny...if you have some free time and nothing to do, you can befriend the children and tell them stories about your escapades during your younger years. Everyone need's a friend, please start caring for others so that someone will care for you. It's a win-win situation, you will have an instant daughter in the presence of Antonia and then you will have instant grandchildren. Isn't that a lively and much more fulfilling life to live than living alone on your own? Just think about it...okay?"
Jessy stood up when the children and Antonia were approaching them. She hugged the older woman, which brought fresh tears on Alicia's eyes, she was deeply touched by the younger woman's genuine affection.
"Take care of yourself, Granny! See you around!" Jessy said.
"Bye-bye... Granny... see you around!" Antonia and the kids waved goodbye at the older woman.
Granny Alicia was left alone on her own, sitting on the bench, wiping the tears from her eyes.
The young woman teaches her a valuable life lesson today... that... it's never too late to start caring for others.

While waiting for the lift, Justin and Jarred begun to tease Juliana and telling her a crying baby. They started to become naughty again when they run out with a woman. Ouch! What are you doing? Can you behave yourself? You almost ruin my bag. Did you know how much its cost? Said Nicole. I am sorry, said Jarred while on longbow. Did your parents did not teach you good manners? While staring at Thomas, thinking that he is the father of the kids. I am sorry, ma'am. They are just kids and they don't want to ruin your bag. Again, I am sorry. Said Thomas. The woman still cannot get over to what just happened. People like you is not allowed in my hotel. No manners! Said Nicole and left. The kids were stunned and look at each other. Thomas, brought them in their room. 
There an hour left before Alex' shift ends. She continue to make rounds in the area to check if everything is clean and tidy. She saw Nicole walking fast and is upset. She went straight to the office and rant about what happened. She heard what she is saying and she think of the kids she just met. Its just a bag, it can be replaced how can she scolded the children. How immature and childish. Said Alex in her thought. She continued to do her work when Nicole saw her. You! Come here! Shout Nicole. Yes, Ma'am, clean my office. Commanded by Nicole. Yes, Ma'am. I will just get my cleaning materials and will be back. Said Alex.
She asked her boss, Boss Nicole is asking me to clean her office. I am about to finish my shift, I will cost me almost 2 hours to clean knowing her standards. I don't know what type of cleaning she wanted. They said she is so fussy. Said Alex. Her boss, think for a while. Okay, I will asked others to clean it. But you have to swap their job, you their remaining rooms. Okay boss. 

Alex, press the doorbell, and knock, housekeeping, knock, housekeeping. And the door opened. Hi Sir, would you like me to clean your room? Ask Alex. The kids heard the familiar voice. They jump off from the bed and look at the owner of the voice. When Juliana saw Alex, she shouted, Auntie Alex! She smiled and said, Hi Sweetie. Thomas is so startled of just what happened. Can I go in and clean? Asked Alex. Okay, okay while stuttering, said Thomas. When Alex was inside the room, she was shocked. The pillows are everywhere, their clothes are scattered, bathroom was so wet and messy. Seeing the place she stared at the kids. The kids are silent and are waiting for what she will be saying next. With this scene, a lot of thing running in thomas' mind.

What did I told you a while ago? Asked Alex.  Without waiting for the kids' answer. Jarred being the big brother, you should set as a good example to your siblings. Come here, I will teach you how to clean your room. With this, what?! Said Thomas in his thought.
Justin and Swettie, you can pick up all your clothes, separate the clean and the used one. Put the used clothes in one corner and put back the clean clothes in your bag. Jarred, pick up all the pillows and put back to the sofa and in the bed. I will clean the bathroom. Said Alex. After a while, all the kids are watching how she clean the bathroom. Then put the towels and amenities. I will put extra here if you want to take a bath before you go to bed tonight and for tomorrow. Let's go to the bedroom. Said Alex. I will change your bed sheets because it has a lot of food stain. Don't eat in your bed, you eat in the table okay? After she change everything she checked the mini-bar, she saw the milk untouched. Did you not drink milk before bedtime? You can drink this, it will help you become strong and you will sleep well. Here, I will give you each and an extra if you want to drink more. Did you eat your lunch? Why your food here is untouched? The kids stared at each other. Kids, you have to each healthy foods to become healthy and strong, and remember what I told you? The children nodded. Thomas is silent and was just observing. A little smile was on is lips. If my boss knew this, he will be very happy. I think he can have a little rest now.

Bye Auntie Alex, said the Kids.

Short Summary
Alexandra Yang was simple but a terrible woman. Timothy Huang was also a terrible man. They fated to meet but will Timothy fall for her when he knew that Alexandra Yang was a more terrible than him? She is a leader of underground organization, a lawyer and a CEO too?

It was a brand-new morning. 
Thanks to Wang Qian and Li Kun coming over to clean up every night, the workload wasn’t too bad for Zhang Zian in the morning. He only needed to clean the puppies’ display cabinets, give the pets water and food, and open the store. Wang Qian and Li Kun came to clean the cat litter at noon. 
Hiking Mt. Hidden Fog made Zhang Zian sore for a few days.  
"Let’s begin the 9th generation broadcast gymnastics! March on the spot…Go!"
"Stretching…Ready? Set! Go!"
Zhang Zian started to exercise along with the music. 
It was a work day morning. Cars and pedestrians were passing by quickly. Everyone was busy with work and school. They kept themselves busy in the hope of a better future.
Fina was majestically watching her territory and people. 
Old Time Tea was happily enjoying her first tea of the morning.
Xinghai was sitting by the door, looking at the passersby curiously and waiting for Zhang Zian to play hide-and-seek after his exercise. 
What a peaceful moment! Zhang Zian wished time would freeze right there. 
It was getting cooler and cooler, especially in the morning. Zhang Zian could not exercise with his thin t-shirt anymore. Before warming up, he had to put on a jacket.
"Brother store manager, good morning!" With a backpack on her back, Little Celery walked over joyfully. After putting down her backpack, she started doing broadcast gymnastics as well. 
"Little Celery, may I ask you a question?" Zhang Zian said without stopping. 
"What is it, Brother store manager? Hmmm…if it is a math problem…" Little Celery was upset.
"No, no, no…. I just wanted to ask if you will turn into a naughty kid sometime and hurt my feelings?" Zhang Zian came across two naughty kids in such a short time, which made him scared of them. 
"Oh… What are naughty kids? What do they do?" tilting her head, she asked. 
Zhang Zian was pleased, "That’s okay. You don’t have to know."
"Relax…One, two, three, four, five, six, seven…stop!"
"I have got to go!" As soon as the broadcast gymnastics music stopped, Little Celery picked up her backpack and rushed out of the store. She missed the hamsters and mini lops. 
Zhang Zian was going for a second round of broadcast gymnastics, when he heard the noise of tires breaking on the ground. 
Sun Xiaomeng parked on the side of the road. Instead of getting out of the car, she stuck her head out and asked, "Are you joking? You know how to train cats to do stunts and teach them new ones from time to time?" She looked at him as if he was a scammer. 
Zhang Zian made a heart-breaking face and said, "You are out of the loop!"
He stopped the music, walked to her car and started preaching, "Young lady, it is good to focus on your profession. It is also important to keep up with new stuff and stay in trend."
Sun Xiaomeng was speechless, "I haven’t seen you for a few days. Why do you talk like an old man? Are you trying to trick people into believing you’re a sophisticated gentleman?"
Zhang Zian knew that it was because he was talking to Old Time Tea all the time these days. Birds of a feather flock together... 
He waved, "You should do your homework. Go search on a video website or local BBS. Use keywords like Amazing Fate, stunt and cat. You should be able to find something. Facts speak louder than words."
If it was a few days ago, she would not believe a word he said. However, even her father told her about the cat stunts, which made her curious. 
"Are you serious? How did you train the cats?" She continued questioning. 
Zhang Zian’s nose was in the air, "It’s our family’s secret method!"
"Bullsh*t! I have never heard about that."
"Well, cat and dog training has been around since ancient times. It is a part of the Chinese culture. Don’t you agree?" Zhang Zian stated his theory in a big way. 
Sun Xiaomeng knew him well enough now, "Well, stop playing your tricks on me. I am smarter than that. Pet training in ancient times had never made it to official history records. There are some stories about training cats to steal or even kill people. Those kinds of stories are not only popular in China, but in many other countries as well. There are many detective novels about pets killing people… don’t feel like you can fool me yet. I have never heard of any example of training cats in bulk."
She totally got the point. Animal training was mostly a one-on-one activity. There were a lot of stories about how people trained their pets to extremely smart. Those people trained their pets to serve them, for instance, stealing, killing or sending messages. They didn’t train those smart pets to sell. 
"It is up to you if you believe me. It is a family secret," Zhang Zian was thick-skinned so he insisted.
He knew there was no way he could explain everything to her. The more she knew, the more confused she would get. So, let it be. 
In the modern world, information spread so quickly that it was almost like a virus. If more people knew that his cats knew stunts, he would get more questions.
The only way he could get by was to insist it was a family secret that he could not reveal to other people. The secret could only be passed along by teaching in person. There wasn’t any documentation. 
Training pets was nothing serious. He should be fine. 
Sun Xiaomeng could do nothing about him. She shook her head and said, "Okay. Fine."
Zhang Zian was relieved. Frankly, he could not handle any more questions from her. He quickly changed the subject and said, "Look, my business is doing quite well. How about the membership discount matter?"
She said as she rolled up the window, "I will think about it." She took off. 
Sun Xiaomeng decided to do her homework first and figure out what to do. 
She got to her store in a few seconds, parked the car and jumped off. 
"Hey, beautiful! Morning!’’
The owner of the auto parts store rolled up the curtain door. He was wearing a tank top. His belly was so big that his belly button was showing. The cool morning wind woke him up.  
"Uncle Niu, good morning," she nodded.
"Well, how many time did I tell you? Don’t call me Uncle Niu. I have a mature face but I am only… a bit over 30 years old. Call me Brother Niu," the owner said and patted his belly. 
"Okay, Uncle Niu. I have to go."
Uncle Niu was speechless. Was she even listening? 
Sun Xiaomeng unlocked the clinic, put on the "open" sign and started her day.  
She learned how to cure pets’ illnesses at school, but she never learned how to deal with annoying neighbors. 
There are tons of advantages of being a woman but there are also plenty more troubles. 
Whatever, it doesn’t help being sad. I should make more money and change to a better location. 
She walked into her office and looked at her appointment table. The first appointment was at 10 o’clock. She had plenty of time. 
She turned on the computer, she started searching using the keywords Amazing Fate, stunt and cat.

"I'm back!" 

As if the threats never happened, Minhyun's anger disappeared, replaced by gentleness. 

The young girl skipped into the room, unaware of the tension within the walls. Minhyun sat down and gestured for her to sit in the spot beside of him. 

She obeyed and played with the utensils while waiting for the food to be served. Minhyun's hand leaned against his palm as he looked at Yoona with doting eyes. He'd never met such a carefree person before. She had the power to draw people in with her innocence. 

The chefs walked in with platters filled with food. After hearing about Minhyun's surprise guest, they quickly arranged for additional plates to be served. While in the kitchen, they overheard Minhyun's threats and knew about the severity of their situation. They had to provide the best food for the new miss. 

Today's menu consisted of full-blood Wagyu Tenderloin with a side of fresh greens and soup. The chefs placed the dishes in front of the two children and bowed slightly before returning to their stations. 

Before taking a bite, Yoona clasped her hands together into a prayer. She shut her eyes. "Thank you for the wonderful food and my new friend. Amen!" 

She wasn't religious, but it was a habit she picked up from her father. Before coming to the mansion to stay with her mother, she lived with him in an apartment. 

Yoona picked up her utensils and tried to dig in. The key word was tried. Due to her lack of knowledge in utensil use, she was unable to hold the knife properly to cut her steak. Minhyun worried for her safety. The knife was sharp, the blade decorated with smaller sharp edges to grab the meat. He didn't want to risk the potential of her getting hurt. 

Minhyun chuckled nervously. "I'll help you." He took the utensils from her hand. With the knife in his right and fork in his left, he cut the tender meat into small chunks for her to enjoy. After he was finished, he gave the knife to one of the workers, before placing the fork back into her hand. "Here you go. Now you can eat without any problems." 

"Thank you Mini," she said in awe. "That was so adult-like. Really, really cool." 

He nodded while the left corner of his lip lifted. The praises made him want to cut a hundred steaks. "You're welcome." 

Since he was older than her by three years, this was the least he could do. 

Yoona enjoyed her meal. When she bit into the tender meat, the flavors would burst in her mouth. Of course, the taste had to be splendid due to its price-tag of two hundred dollars, but she wasn't aware of the money. She evaluated it the same as any other dish. 

"So Yoona," Minhyun began. 

Like a chipmunk, her cheeks were filled with food. "Yes?" 

"Tell me more about yourself." 

Although they spoke in the garden, Minhyun knew very little about the girl in front of him. He wanted to know more. He was far more interested in learning who 'Yoona' is than learning about the business analytics of his father's company. This was the first time he showed such curiosity. 

Streams of questions whizzed through Yoona's mind. What should she say? There were so many things she wanted to tell him! She was excited to share stories about her life with her friend. 

"Well," she began. She started with a basic introduction. "I'm six-years-old, I attend Golden State Elementary, and I like puppies!" 

So, she attended school like most kids. 

Minhyun couldn't help but feel curious about her experience in school. Due to his genius nature and status as an heir, he was not allowed to attend regular school. His father did not approve of the education system in Korea. He said that the students in Korea were below him and the teachers weren't smart enough to teach. Instead of allowing him to have teachers, father demanded that he self-teach himself. Every month, he was given a new set of textbooks to learn from and was tested at the end to see the amount of knowledge he retained. The tests were usually around 3 - 4 hours long for each subject, created by the smartest brains of his father's company. 

This studying method made Minhyun independent. The exact traits his father was building him up as the next heir. 

"School? Tell me about school," he asked. He leaned closer to her with curious eyes. 

Different memories of her school life played in her mind. "Well, I just graduated from kindergarten and since it's summer, grade one hasn't started yet, but in kindergarten, I was in the Butterfly class. There's around thirty other friends in the same room as me. We do a lot of stuff like learning Korean, playing games, and reading books! I liked kindergarten. It was really fun." 

Minhyun couldn't believe it. Thirty different kids like him in the same room? That was a dream come true! It was hard for him to meet thirty people while living in this house. To imagine a big friend group made his brain dizzy. To think that another happy world existed outside of these walls. He wanted to quickly escape. 

Once he turned twelve, Minhyun's father promised to enroll him to an academy in New York. He was counting down the days until then. As the top school in the world, prided in educating the world's wealthiest students, it was the only school worthy of his title. 

"Wow," he commented. "That sounds like so much fun." 

Yoona nodded in agreement before stabbing her fork into a piece of meat. After placing it in her mouth and chewing, she began to speak. "Yeah, it is! I remember one time, my friend Donghyuk was playing tag with the rest of us and he fell into a big puddle. He was the color of poo till the end of the day. Stinky like one too." 

Little giggles escaped from her mouth as she recalled the incident. It was one of the funniest days of her life. 

While she was laughing, Minhyun stood there in silence. His eyebrows were furrowed while in deep thought. He found Yoona's story funny too, but there was a single aspect that he didn't understand. What was this 'tag'? Any child in the world would know of the game, but he had no idea. Minhyun didn't grow up playing with others. He spent his time studying and reading. 

"What is tag?" He asked. 

Yoona widened her eyes and she raised her hands up in the air. "You don't know what tag is? What kid doesn't know tag?" For a moment, Yoona thought that Minhyun was playing tricks; however, his eyes showed no mischief. 

"I-I don't know what it is." 

When she realized he truly did not know, a grin appeared on her face. She jumped out of her seat and hit his shoulder hard with her hand. 

Minhyun grabbed his arm. "Ow!" 

"Tag you're it!" Before the other workers could reprehend her for hitting their master, the young girl ran to the end of the table. She stuck out her tongue and shook her bottom. "Catch me if you can Mini." 

A smirk danced on his lips. After her taunting, he quickly understood the rules of the game. He was supposed to touch her with his hands. Ignoring the warm steak on his plate, he ran after her. The two went into frenzy as they tried to catch one another by running in circles around the tables. 

One of the maids was about the feint. The young master was running around. He could get hurt! There were antiques and other valuables in the room. Nonetheless, none of them had the heart to stop the two kids from having fun. Minhyun was enjoying the game too much. 

After the two finishing their game and the cold lunch, they continued to play for hours. Minhyun showed her around the house, introducing her to the different rooms. With another person, his mundane daily activities became more exciting. The monotone house brightened, and he never realized how colorful his surroundings were. 

While they played around, his threats spread throughout the other workers. By the end of the day, everyone knew not to mess with the young master and the little girl. No worker dared to call the boss about the special intruder. Minhyun was going to own the company at one point. To make him an enemy was wishing for death.

“Did you offer to let me live at your house for my safety or because you had other intentions?”

Minhyun stared at her with a playful smile on his face. “If I were to be honest, I would say both.”

“It’s like... Wait... What?! I was joking! What other intentions are you talking about?!?” Yoona widened her eyes in the midst of her sentence. Did she just hear what he said?

He fixed his tie. “Its a secret.”

“Mini!”

—-

When he was a child, Minhyun had nobody to lean on. His days were filled with darkness.

That is, until he met Yoona. After they became friends, he smiled for the first time in a long time. Every night, he felt excitement in his chest for the next day to come. She brought the foreign feeling of happiness in his heart and was able to heal his loneliness.

However, the cold reality of this world separated the two children. One becoming darker than he once was, and the other struggled to make end's meet.

After fifteen years, the childhood friends meet again as adults. Yoona becomes a university student, while Minhyun overtakes his father as the CEO of MH conglomerate, one of the biggest companies in the world. 

With newfound enemies and cold betrayals, would the two be able to find love? 

But most importantly of all, will they be able to help each other heal the demons of their pasts?

[Happy ending and not too melodramatic like most stories]

Obviously, it wasn't only Mom and Dad who bonded with the twins. Alt-nii and I were also bonding with the twins. We naturally wanted to get along well with our new siblings, right?
I wasn't sure of how Alt-nii saw the twins—he might find the twins amusing and wanted to trigger more reaction or expression from the twins. He often played pranks on them. But since he grew up, his pranks were now in moderation. 
That's good! The twins would definitely come to dislike Alt-nii if he were as rambunctious as he was! 

Meanwhile, I tried to help the twins and guided them patiently to get used to their new lifestyle and home. Even more so when Mom and Dad weren't at home. 

For example, when Freyja was fidgeting around like she was holding her pee...
"Ah, do you want to go to the toilet? Here, follow me."

When they were done playing at the garden...
"Eeekh, your feet are still dirty, let's wash them first before going in! There's a water tap over here... Or do you want me to use my water magic? Here!!" 
"Lyra-samaaa! Keep your magic power in control! Ah, let Niina help the twins, will you?"
"No, it's my job as their big sister now that Mom and Dad are away! Niina can just go and do your job as usual!"
...I admit, I felt as if I was turning more childish these days. But I never really had this much fun before. 

When the twins tried to peek the book I was reading...
"Hmm? Do you want to read this book, too?" 

That was how I successfully won over the twins' hearts~! During when my parents weren't home, they were mostly following me like baby chickens would follow their mothers, too! Yay~! Mission achieved~!!
Ah, sometimes they also curiously went over to Alt-nii and Rurune.

In no time, I heard the adults gossiping about me... IN MY OWN HOME!!
Yes, things like...
"Look, look, Lyra-sama's so precocious!"
"She acts like the twins' second mother, how cu~te~!"
"It's true that girls mature faster than boys, huh?"
"At this rate, it won't be that long until Lyra-sama becomes a bride—and a wonderful mother!"
"I WON'T LET LYRA MARRY THAT EARLY!"

The part-time house helpers were all kind and friendly—and yes, they also participated in gossiping about me! Ah well, but they were praising me... I'm not even mad, I-I'm actually... happy!
This time around, I will properly do my role as a good big sister.
I finally got two cute little siblings, why would I take them for granted? 
And unlike other kids their age, they were surprisingly obedient and taciturn. I wish they could be more selfish like the other kids—like Leti, for example. But hey, I might be able to say this because I have never dealt with noisy kids 24/7, huh?

Soon, the twins turned even calmer and understood that some people would always stay (us), while some would occasionally come and go (the part-time helpers). Their separation-anxiety was still there, but it got better!

Then, my maternal grandparents immediately showed up to welcome their new grandchildren! After they heard the whole story from my parents, they promised they'd try to visit us every now and then. To show the twins that they were also family! 
Looking at their reactions, I decided to try to tease them a bit...
"Grandpa and Grandma want to visit us more often to bond with the twins?"
"Yes, that's right, Lyra!" 
"...So, Grandpa and Grandma love the twins more? Because you didn't say that when it was just me and Alt," I said as I pretended to be pouting.
"That's not it, Lyra!" Grandma panicked.
"Listen, Lyra, the situation is different. We love you all the same, but you see..."
...It seemed like a wrong move as it suddenly turned into a mini preaching session by Grandpa! 


The first ones to know that there were two new addition to our family were the royal family. As much as the king and the queen wanted to let the twins become Leticia's friends, they understood that the twins still needed time to adapt. And before they could go to the Capicastle, they also needed to learn basic etiquette. 
"How does it feel, suddenly getting two little siblings?" Luca asked me when I came over to study and play together.
"It's fun! They are such good kids! Moreover, they are so cute~!" I didn't hide my fondness of them that quickly and naturally grew in my heart.
"Huh? Why won't you admit that you feel a bit upset at them in the beginning?" 
"Why would you think so?" I raised my eyebrows at Luca's deduction.
"Wouldn't you normally think that way at first? Suddenly, your parents are more occupied with them!"
"Eeh, I don't mind~ Rather, it's only natural. Anyway, I'm much more sensible! More than someone I know, hmm?" I deliberately played the tone in my last sentence as I looked teasingly at Luca.
"Hey, you're the abnormal one! I was told that my reaction was okay!!" Luca argued back.

"Is that how my big sisters felt when I was first introduced to them?" Kiri pondered.
"Lyra-neesama! Leti is still like a cute li'l sister to you, right? Right, right, right? Heyyy?" Leticia asked, her tone was full of demand. 
"Yes, yes~ Leti is still my cute li'l sister~ Don't worry, my love is endless~ I've got plenty of love for you all~!!!" I quickly hugged Leticia to appease her jealousy to the twins she hadn't even met. 
I really hope Leticia can get along well with the twins, with them being at the same age, too! It will be nice if she doesn't develop a rivalry with them.
I wished from the bottom of my heart. As I imagined them getting along well, my lips reflexively curved up. 

Time quickly passed by as I was busy trying to pamper my cute little siblings. When I noticed the holidays were over, I felt a bit reluctant (for the first time!) to bid farewell to my relaxing time at home and to go back to school. After all, it meant that my time with the twins would be reduced!
Unexpectedly, news traveled quite fast.
Right on my first day back to school, I was bombarded with questions about the twins! 
At that time, it was just me, Ein, Iris, and Carbuncle speaking. Luca and Kiri were more interested in watching Alt-nii, Harvey, and Clavis sparring. 

"Big Sis Lyra, is it true that you have new siblings?" Ein was the first one to ask.
"Ehh, really?" Iris was surprised. She spent her last holiday at Harvey's home—having a reunion with her old acquaintances there, going back to her hometown. 
I didn't think it was weird for Ein to know and for Iris to be clueless. News about nobles would travel quickly in the noble society. As for the commoners, it depended solely on their networking. 
Moreover, Ein and I were fellow duke's children. It was a hard-to-miss news. 

"Hm? That's too fast, isn't it, Lyr? Do humans breed this quick?" The dragon Carbuncle asked. She tagged along with Iris and Harvey. From how she looked at this time—a slightly tanned skin, lively expressions, and exuberant body... yep, she definitely had lots of fun. 
Okay, I totally have to ask them about their holidays after this!

"Yes and no—yes, because I really got two cute little siblings! And no, they are technically my cousins, but since my parents adopted them, they are now my step siblings. Humans don't breed that fast, Carbuncle...," I explained.
"Two siblings at the same time? That's awesome!" Iris said. 
"Yes, my little brother and sister were a pair of twins~," I proudly announced.
"Twins? Really? How do they look like?" Carbuncle asked, "When are you going to show them to us, Lyr? Can we see them?" 
Her eyes were full of "curiosity filter". 

"Being part of the Hartmann bloodline, they have heterochromic eyes. They are at the same age as Luca's little sister—but I think they are still smaller than Leti...? We're trying to solve that issue, though! They are quiet and cute! I also can't wait to show them off to you guys, but I think we need to give them more time. I'll definitely introduce them to you guys first, don't worry~!" 
"Aww, boo, we can't see them right away?" Carbuncle didn't even bother to hide her disappointment. 
"Patience, my dragon friend, patience!" I waved my index finger in front of her.
"That's too bad... I understand how Big Sis Kuu feels! I also can't wait to see my rivals!" Ein supported Carbuncle.
"R-rivals?!" I tilted my head.
"Yes, I don't want my position in Big Sis Lyra's heart to be toppled over by anyone!" He said, with fiery eyes full of determination.
"Don't worry, there's enough room for everyone in my heart~!" I tried to reassure him—out of my concern towards the twins. I want them to like my friends, after all, and I want my friends to get along well with them.
"I want the bigger spot!" Ein insisted.

"A-anyway, I'll definitely keep you updated with stories about my new siblings! I don't think I can keep the stories about Freyr and Freyja to myself, but...," I paused for a bit and looked at Iris and Carbuncle before continuing, "more importantly now, how was your holiday vacation, Iris, Carbuncle?"
"I really loved it! I missed my hometown a lot... Harvey's parents were also close to my mother, so they treated me like their own daughter! I wish you could come along too, Lyra," Iris said.
"Little Sheep's hometown is nice. It's in a rural area, so I can roam freely. Of course, I was being careful so nobody would spot me when I transformed back to my dragon form!" Carbuncle dropped a bomb.
"Wait, you, what?!" I was taken aback. I could imagine a dragon roaming around freely around the rural area that was close to forests and mountains. 
Did she feel like being at home...? I wonder if Carbuncle's also missing the freedom she had back at the Dragon's Heritage?
It was just then that I realized Carbuncle might not be as "free" as I thought she was. Even so, she didn't seem to be so bothered by it. 
"Did you see Big Sis Kuu's dragon form, Big Sis Iris?" Ein asked.
Ooh, nice question, Ein! Good job, I really can feel our connection when you asked the question that just popped up in my mind!

Contrary to our expectations, Iris shook her head.
"No, Kuu came and went around as she saw fit. At first, we were quite worried as she frequently disappeared without a word. But she also returned safely without any warning, and we got used to it over time. I think she transformed back to her dragon form during one of her 'free-roaming' session?"
"That's right~," Carbuncle put her tongue out and smiled mischievously.
"Hey, you shouldn't bother your host like that!" I protested.
"It's fine, it's fine~," Carbuncle just waved her hand.
"Well... we managed to convince Harvey's parents to not mind her, somehow...," Iris smiled with a troubled expression.
"I want to go and see Big Sis Iris' hometown one day!" Ein suddenly announced.
"Yes, yes, you should come there one day!" Iris smiled.
"Ein, is there something that won't pique your interest?" I asked.

A duke’s daughter wanted nothing in her life but the sweet nothingness of death, as she felt like her life served no purpose. Her wish was granted when she was killed in an unfortunate accident, yet in a sudden turn of events, she was forced to reincarnate.

As fate has it, she was reborn in her original world, but not directly after her death. As she is living her new life, she tries to forget the pain of her old life. But, what exactly is behind her reincarnation? Will she be able to live her new life to the fullest?

This is a slow-paced life journey of a reincarnated girl who's trying to find the meaning behind her past life and reincarnation.

Chapter 2

The boy was called satria
During this time he has lived alone in the suburbs of Jakarta.
because his parents have died, he had to earn his own living since he was a child.

In his daily life, he works as a cleaner in a karate dojo with a payment of 500 thousand rupiahs per month.


Satria is not a child who is talented in the field of magic, he does not have the ability and knowledge of magic.

So why is he in the Nusantara magic academy?

Oneday after he worked, he decided to rest in one of the mini markets on his way home. After a while an older man appeared who looked senile and lost.

"Grandpa, where are you going?"

"maybe I'm lost young man"

For some time he decided to accompany that oldman.
The oldman began to tell stories in a very long time. 
Satria only listened and responded to that oldman as a sign of his respect for the older people.
After that the satria took the initiative to buy mineral water for the oldman, although the consideration of the money he had would starve him for the next few days.

"Grandpa, wait a minute, I'll be right back."

After some time, he reappeared with a bottle of mineral water and bread for the grandfather.

The grandfather laughed

"Why did you give this to me young man?"

"Well, I think, Grandpa is thirsty and hungry after our long talk"

2 weeks later, an unexpected event appeared. The old man whom he met some time ago came with a strict escort visiting the dojo where satria worked.

With the intention of repaying what the Satria did, he came and gave an offer to Satria. 

"I always pay for what other people do to me young man"

"Do you mean Grandpa?"

"Starting next week, you will join Nusantara magic academy as a student there, starting from the financing and administration of all, I will take care of it."

Satria looked surprised.
It never crossed his mind that he would get the chance to study at the Nusantara magic academy.

For a moment he hesitated, because he did not have talent in the field of magic and he was also unsure of being able to study in a formal institution because he had never attended school before.

But to protect the oldman's name, he agreed.

Later he also got a fact that the oldman was a former dean of the Support class at Nusantara magic academy.

""

After satria got the results of his class placement, he asked each student.

"Hi I'm Satria, are you guys in the Support class too?"

"Are you kidding? I'm in Main class !!"

"Get lost, there's no way I'm in the lowest class, Class F is only for gifted people"

Satria never thought that he would get a bitter response when people found out that he was in Support class F.
But he did not regret it and still looking for anyone in class F.

After a while, he saw a confused young girl. Satria also ventured to greet her. 

""


On the first day of learning
Class F seems quiet.
But there is a boy who has been waiting from 6 am.
Satria is the type of boy who will always arrive early. His habit of getting up early had been guarded from when he was a child because he had to leave early to clean the dojo.

After a while ,Cindy appeared with a flat expression. Its presence is filled with an aura of "don't approach me" and an aura of "don't talk to me".
Satria was hesitant to say hello.


For 10 minutes, they both fell silent without any conversation or greeting each other.

Followed by the emergence of 3 other children and a middle-aged man who is expected to be the teacher for class F.

Satria was not distracted by the presence of other students, for a few seconds he was stunned by what he saw from the middle-aged man. With an athletic body and an authoritative aura, it reminds him of his sensei in the dojo.

"Alright kids, welcome to class F. Before I introduce myself, I hope you introduce yourself one by one"

"Cindy, 15, Germany. I specialize in fire magic."

She is the woman he met on the day of the welcoming of new students. the height range is 169 cm, the hair is blackish brown. two red eyes symbolizing the beauty and authority of a woman who has synergy with the element of fire.
Basically Cindy is a closed woman but she is also the type of woman who will react when something hits her common sense and logic.



"My family used to call me Nina, I'm from Singapore. I focus on strengthening elemental magic"

Nina is a Russian girl who lives and was born in Singapore. She is a friendly and innocent girl.

"Well my name is Yuan, I am a summoner and my contracted beast is monkey"

Basically a summoner is a rare type of magic that is very much needed.
But in this case, the yuan received an unfavorable treatment relating to the animal that it was contracting with.


After 3 children introduced themselves, it was turn of satria to introduce himself. 

"hmm good morning" nervously he greeted his friends.

"Good morning, nice to meet you"

"OK good morning, hurry up and don't beat around the bush"

"You can call me Satria, I'm not sure of my abilities but it seems I don't have the talent he he he"

" no kidding! "

"are you serious? "

Students in class F look surprised. They could not imagine why someone who did not understand magic could exist in the Academy of Magic.

After Satria explained about himself, the  teacher's brow furrowed.
He calmly approached Satria and asked.

"Satria, are you sure you are not familiar with certain types of magic?"

"yes teacher, so far I have never learned magic"

After hearing Satria's statement the teacher laughed

"Is something wrong sir?" Satria asked in surprise about the meaning of the teacher's laughter.

"It's okay, it's really unique. So what do you do?"

"Hmmm, I'm a bare handed fighter," satria  answered doubtfully.

"satria, I think it makes sense to fight someone according to our abilities, then are you sure you will use your bare handed skill to fight a fireball or ice attack from magic?" Cindy also responded to Satria's statement in a rather cynical tone.

"Okay, that's enough, let me introduce my self, you can call me franz, 4 years ago I was a troop in the magic alliance human division."

"Now I decided to teach to create new generation of mage, so for Satria's case I think we will solve the problem later, do you understand?"

"Alright sir," all the students answered in unison.

"Alright kids, after this, all of you go to the trial lab, we will measure aspects of your abilities"

 yuan immediately interrupted,
"Sir, where is one more child?"

"Hmm, he will come later"

???

a story about the world after a 100-year war against demons.

where new potentials arise to ensure the idealism of peace is maintained

a story about a magic academy student who wants to be an expert

The Crawford Shopping Center lived up to its reputation as one of the biggest shopping complexes in the country. It was still only nine in the morning, but there were already a lot of people busy with their shopping. Andrea dragged the two children towards the clothing stores. She began to dress them in various clothes.
The eyes of the salesladies became excited when they saw the pretty young girl and the angelic boy start a mini fashion show with the help of Andrea's coaxing. Ciel and Kate were quite helpless against Andrea. She started taking pictures of them using Heinz's camera as they tried the different clothes that she personally picked for them. They had no choice but to strike poses as the giggling mother took their pictures.
The pitiful bodyguards that came along became the bag carriers as the trio bought things left, right, and center. Heinz did a good job as their chaperone and complimented the 'three kids' for their outstanding tastes. Unfortunately, this prompted them to buy more.
Andrea was not worried about the bill because she was using her husband's credit card so the sky was the limit. Since her husband was working hard to earn money, it was only natural for her as his wife to spend it. This was Andrea's reasoning and she didn't feel guilty about it. Not one tiny bit. Women were scary, especially when they hold grudges.
"Did you receive any news from my parents?" Andrea asked Heinz while the two kids were changing clothes.
Heinz just finished talking to someone on his mobile phone and Andrea assumed that it was her parents who made the call. "Yes, they're starting to prepare the venue, My Lady," Heinz replied. "So far, things are going according to plan."
"That's good. I want everything to be perfect. After all, this is a special day."
"The Sir, and the Madam, are doing their best. With their help, success is guaranteed."  Heinz reassured her. "We only need to do our part, My Lady."
Yes, they only need to keep the kids away from the manor until the preparations were finished.
"When the kids return we are going to watch a movie," Andrea said, excitedly. "It's been a while since I watched a movie on the big screen."
"My Lady, I heard that the latest animated film from Disney was good. If I remember correctly, the title was The Land Before Time: The Stone of Cold Fire. I'm sure the kids will love it."
"Eh? Why would we watch that kiddy show? I was planning to watch 'Final Destination' with them. I've been waiting for it for months. Nothing is going to stop me from watching it."
Heinz almost choked when he heard Andrea's plan. He lightly coughed to hide his embarrassment. Letting the kids watch a horror film? What about age restrictions? Are they even allowed to watch it in the first place?
Various questions appeared in the butler's head, however he swat them away immediately. He would not allow Ciel and Kate to watch Final Destination. His lips twitched as he imagined the scene of the two kids leaving the movie theater with the eyes of a dead fish. If that were to happen, then everything they had prepared for today would be all for naught.
"My Lady, please reconsider." Heinz pleaded. "A movie like that is not suitable for young audiences. The young master, and young lady might have nightmares after watching that show. Can your conscience allow that to happen?"
Andrea pressed her lips together. She didn't understand why Heinz was being unreasonable. Isn't it just a movie? What's so scary about watching a movie? Isn't it just a work of fiction?
Heinz forgot that Andrea was the type that liked to 'act before she thinks'. She could be very stubborn at times and the way she viewed things was sometimes different from other people. You could even say that common sense didn't apply to her. She liked to do things her way without thinking about the consequences. This attitude of hers had landed Heinz and Vincent in all sorts of trouble in the past. It was always their job to clean up after her mess.
"Heinz, what's so bad about Final Destination? It teaches people to be careful so that they don't accidentally die." Andrea decided to use proper reasoning to make Heinz understand. "If you are careful, and observe your surroundings, you will be able to live longer. Besides, it's just a fictional movie and not a true story."
"My Lady, that movie is meant for adults. There are scenes that are not appropriate for young children to watch," Heinz countered using proper logic. "If they were a bit older then perhaps they would be able to appreciate it. However, they are still young."
Andrea was still unconvinced. That just proves how stubborn she was.
"Oh? You also said the same thing when I brought Ciel to watch Jurassic Park," Andrea smiled sweetly. "My baby liked the movie very much. He wasn't even afraid of the T-Rex. You worry too much, Heinz."
"My Lady, Jurassic Park and Final Destination are very different from each other." Heinz had no intention of backing down. "If you really insist on watching Final Destination, then I will accompany the young master and young lady to watch the Disney Movie. We'll meet up afterward. What do you think, My Lady?"
Heinz was prepared to make a compromise. For the sake of the children, he was willing to take a step back and allow Andrea to watch Final Destination by herself.
"I think you're worrying too much." Andrea pouted. "Let's ask the kids when they get here. Let them decide for themselves."
A few minutes later, the group headed for the cinema. Andrea managed to convince Ciel to watch Final Destination. Although Kate was afraid of horror movies, she would accompany Ciel wherever he went. Andrea had a smug look on her face as she gave Heinz the see-I-told-you expression.
Heinz held back a sigh and didn't say anything. The movie was 'Rated R' which meant anyone under 17 was not allowed to watch it, unless they were accompanied by adults. Since Andrea and Heinz were there, the kids were allowed to enter the movie theatre.
When the movie started, Kate held Ciel's hand. She would not admit it, but she's not good with horror stories. Ciel knew that Kate was a scaredy cat and felt her anxiousness. He gripped her hand tightly to reassure her that he was here for her.
Heinz watched the movie with mild interest. He almost laughed out loud when he saw the reaction of the trio during a scene where the main character was reading a Penthouse Magazine, and on the page was a shirtless woman. Ciel immediately covered Kate's eyes, and Andrea covered Ciel's. Although the scene only lasted for a few seconds, it still showed how protective the mother and son pair were. Heinz frowned because the movie was filled with abusive and coarse language that was not suitable for children.
Just as Heinz predicted, Kate's eyes were closed during some of the bloody scenes as she desperately hugged Ciel's arm for comfort (a soft whimper escaped her lips during the kitchen scene). Ciel, on the other hand, didn't particularly liked or disliked the movie. He made sure to hold Kate's hand and hugged her during the scary parts (especially during the kitchen scene). As for Andrea, she seemed a bit disappointed. She was expecting something more, but sadly, it didn't meet her expectations.
When the movie ended, the group went to a restaurant to eat. Kate didn't order any meat dishes, and Ciel followed suit. Andrea was about to order a steak, but changed her mind halfway. Hence, they had salads, sandwiches (no meat added), and desserts for lunch.
Ciel knew that Kate still hadn't recovered from watching the movie so he took her to the arcade. It was there where they saw a group of people dancing on a machine. The two of them got curious and went to check it out. The game was called Dancing Stage (Dance Dance Revolution), and the two children were soon hooked by what they saw. After two songs, the dancers stepped down and no one else took their place.
Andrea and Heinz glanced at each other and knew that this was a good opportunity to help Kate get over her fright from the movie. The two combined forces and coaxed the two children to try it out. Ciel was very perceptive and understood his mother's goal. He took charge of the situation and held Kate's hand, guiding her to the dance machine.
At first, Kate was embarrassed because there were a lot of people watching them. The crowd cheered when they saw the pretty girl and handsome boy step on top of the dance machine. Since both of them were beginners, Ciel chose the songs with lower difficulty first.
Both of them made a few mistakes, but it didn't take long before the two of them were following the beat of the music. Andrea and Heinz cheered and clapped with the crowd as the two kids finished their first song. Ironically, Ciel and Kate got addicted to the Dancing Stage. They even went as far as to challenge the difficult songs after their initial embarrassment had faded away. Andrea was also itching to give it a go, but Heinz held her back.
"Why are you stopping me?"
"Let the two of them have their fun first."
"How about my fun?" Andrea pouted. "Heinz, you're forgetting that I'm your employer. Why are you always getting in my way?"
"It's not like I'm getting in your way, My Lady," Heinz replied. "I just want you to listen to my idea first."
"Mmm? This better be good."
"My Lady, I think it would be best if we…"
Heinz proposed that they purchase their own dance machine and install it at the manor. Andrea liked the idea very much and immediately assigned the butler to contact the game supplier and have the machine delivered as soon as possible.
Little did they know that this decision of theirs would not only make the two children happy, but would also cause Andrea's parents to get addicted and join the Dance Dance Revolution Craze.
But that is another story for another time.

Kate once had it all. Clothes, food, a place to stay, and a loving family. However, it all ended when her parents were murdered by a mysterious organization. Stella, her split personality, was the reason she barely made it out with her life. Living and hiding on the streets was a very difficult thing to do for a nine-year-old, but Stella helped her along the way.

A few years passed as she lived everyday in desperation. Tired, hungry, bitter, and on the verge of collapse, she was saved by a young boy when things took a turn for the worse. His name was Ciel Summers, her future dearest one.

Things were going smoothly until she managed to pass the entrance exam to the prestigious Saint Claire Academy. Hidden schemes played behind the scenes as a serum capable of awakening the latent powers of anyone below the age of 15 was developed.

They set their eyes on the elite students of the academy, and kidnapped Ciel, who became an unwilling test subject. It was the beginning of a series of events, which led Kate to discover the name of the organization that killed her parents and the secrets that were buried deep within her body.

Kayn and Sasha woke up the next day and did their same routine as usual. The ship was closing in on Planet Sadala until it eventually came into sight. The planet looked purple and blue from space, the color looked quite beautiful from Kayn's standpoint. Kayn had information about this planet due to him having information about both universes.

"Sasha, land the ship on the planet where other visitors usually land." Kayn proceeded to explain where she should land as they descend to the planet. Sasha steered the ship towards the location, there were tons of ships and people. There were people leaving and coming to the planet, Sasha landed the ship successfully under the guidance of some alien who was giving them signals on where to land.

"Alright, it time for us to check this place out." Sasha nodded with excitement and Both of them left the ship. The minute they left the ship, they were greeted by the alien that helped them land.

"I can see you guys are new here. Usually, everyone knows where to land and can pull it off with ease, that wasn't the case for you guys, haha!" The aliens laughed as he stuck out his hand to Kayn for a handshake. "My name's Barnes, I am just a helper around here. If you need help with anything, just ask." Kayn shook the alien's hand as he nodded.

"I do need help with something, I wonder if you could tell me where the women on this planet give birth?" Kayn got straight to the point. Sasha, who was by his side was surprised, what was he going to do? The Alien was a little surprised himself but didn't think it was a big deal after thinking about it.

"That's easy, it is a place called the Birth Center. This is the place where all the female Saiyan's only, at least can goto to have their kids." The man smiled as he told Kayn the Name and most importantly the coordinates. Kayn didn't plan to stay on this planet too long and wanted to return home. There were so many things he had to do.

"Ah, thank you. Here take these as thanks." Kayn took 7 Senzu Beans out of his storage and gave them to the alien. The alien looked at the beans in confusion. "These beans will heal you instantly from fatigue or from most injuries." Kayn saw the confused looked on the man's face, so he explained.

"Wow, there is such a bean in existence?" The man was in disbelief but put the beans in his pouch that was strapped to his side. The man patted Kayn on the shoulder. "Thanks, lad, I need to get back to work, so ill see you around." Kayn nodded and the man walked off to continue his job. 


Kayn and Sasha walked out of the landing and parking area. "Why do you need to go to someplace where women have kids?" Sasha was finally able to ask her question, she wanted to mind her business like she had been doing until now, but she had to know this!

"I just wanted to go see the beautiful big-bellied women. I hear that their breasts also get bigger when they're pregnant, I was wondering if they would let me suck them, hehe!" Kayn gave a perverted excuse. He didn't want Sasha to know about the super Saiyan god just yet, he would tell her much later in the future, besides, she didn't qualify to become one now.

"Damn Sicko, Are you serious!?" Sasha almost punched Kayn in the face when he spoke his first sentence but decided to listen further, only to hear him speaking even more vulgar. "Screw you, I going to explore this place on my own, hmph!" Sasha looked at Kayn with contempt

"Alright, we'll meet here in 12 hours, Okay!" Kayn smiled at Sasha as she took to the sky. She glared at Kayn, she then turned around and flew off. "Sorry, Sasha, but this was all apart of the plan." Kayn knew she wanted to explore the planet, so he gave her a reason to leave him and go by herself.

Kayn thought he could be off this planet in 1 or 2 days if things went well. Kayn focused and shot out his senses. Kayn immediately found the birth center and used Instant Transmission. Some people were looking at Kayn and Sasha's little argument with amusement, but when they saw him disappear they were shocked. 

Meanwhile, Kayn had arrived at the Birth Center. There were women all around carrying their babies, the fathers were there too in some cases. Kayn looked around and saw a huge billboard with someone that appeared to look like King Vegeta, but judging from the label underneath the frame, his name was called King Sadala. "Hmm, it looks like he just became the king, he is so young at that." Thinking about this, Kayn knew people like Cabba, Kale, and Caulifa wern't even born yet.

Kayn walked into the Birth Center and Put his Eye of Judgement on full blast, he was hoping for some 100% good women. Kayn looked around and spotted many pregnant women but none of their numbers were 100. They would have 80 to 90 percent, if you're not updated then Kayn could see how good someone was with is eyes. Numbers would pop up in colors, red and blue, he could even see their personality if he leveled up his eyes.

Kayn searched for 1 hour through the Birth Center but found none, just as he was about to head to the 3rd floor, he was called out. "Hey, little boy, what are you doing here? Are you lost?" Kayn jumped a bit and looked back. It was a woman and she was pregnant, she had long hair that resembled Raditz. No, she looked like the woman version of Raditz! Kayn mouth dropped from surprise seeing how she almost resembled Raditz.

"Ah, yes, I am a little lost." Kayn said whatever to himself and scanned the woman. Kayn almost fainted from joy, he had found one! She had 100% goodness within her, this was a great find for him.

"I see. I can help you with anything you need. My name Radista, what is your name?" Radista!? Kayn was sure now, this was the counterpart of Raditz. Kayn knew that Saiyans named their kids after vegetables or even fruits sometimes, Kayn's name originated from Sugar Cane which couldn't be classified as a fruit or a vegetable, what was he?

"My name is Kayn, it is nice to meet you. I was wondering if you could take me to the third floor?" Kayn asked 

"Sure, I have nothing better to do anyway, they won't release me until this kid is born. I was heading to the third floor anyway." Kayn signed in relief and followed behind her, he could tell that she was not a fighter. Her power level was beyond low, even killing someone would give you a negative 1 no matter what. The thing is, after that, it wouldn't go down if you killed someone who was evil or someone trying to kill you.

Radista and Kayn arrived on the third floor, she led him to a room. The room had a woman laying in bed, she was asleep and also pregnant. "This is my sister Kakarinna, she is currently sleeping now. You can go find whoever you're looking for in each room on the third floor. Tell me if you have any trouble finding your mom and I'll help you." Kayn's mouth twitched a bit, he hated being treated like a kid. He really wanted to grow up fast!

Kayn looked at Kakarinna, Kayn already knew that this was the counterpart for Goku. She had long short hair, meaning long but short at the same time. It grew to her shoulders and stopped there, Kayn considered this long short hair. Kayn used his eye of Judgement and found that she was also like her sister and not a fighter, she had a hundred percent as well.

'Good, Good, all I have to do now is find 3 more and I am good, or should I say, god!' Kayn laughed to himself as he thought "Hey Radista, when are you and your sister due?" Kayn hoped that they wouldn't be due to soon, he saw that Radista stomach was quite huge and questioned.

"Oh my, quite the curious one aren't you?" Radista looked at Kayn with amusement and continued. "I am due in 2 months, while my sister is due in 1 month from now, or was it 3 weeks." Radista said with a smile. Kayn's mouth twitched again. He almost wanted to yell, Are you sure about anything!? Kayn decided to believe her and assumed her sister was due in 3 weeks instead.

"I have a special request I am going to need from you and your sister later. I will compensate both of you if you help me." Kayn wanted her consent, he already felt like she would agree.

"Hmm, it will depend on what you want us to do. If it is something within our ability then we will do it." Radista said beaming

"Well, that is good then. It is very easy, I will be taking my leave." Kayn waved bye to Radista and left the room just like that.

"What a strange boy." Radista shook her head as she smiled

Kayn continued his search, he went to every room on his way. The building had 7 floors so he had many more rooms to check. Kayn was full of energy, so searching the whole building wouldn't make him tired. Kayn found nothing on the 3rd floor and proceeded to the 4th floor.

"Man, I hope there are some on this floor. Apparently, the women who aren't fighters are the best choice." Kayn knew that a person would need to have a no-kill record or act-evil record to keep their perfect percent grade. Kayn continued his search, he checked room after room but all were failures. "My fortune may have run out." Kayn smiled bitterly as he advanced to the 5th floor.

Once Kayn got to the floor, he saw a desk and counter area. There was a nurse behind it, she was an alien with red fur, she was a cat alien. Kayn walked up to the counter, the Catwoman noticed him right away and spoke. "Little boy, how may I help you today? Are you looking for your parents?" Kayn's expression dropped, he definitely had to grow up!

"I have a question, can you tell me the location of the women that aren't fighters?" Kayn had a clear idea of who he should be finding and that was women who wern't fighters. 

"Oh, I can see that you're a Saiyan as well. Hmm, well most of the women who aren't fighter are on the 7th floor. We usually recommend them to the higher floors, so most of them are on the highest floor which is the 7th level." The Catwoman explained as Kayn nodded, this made things easier.

"Thank you for your help." The Cat woman simply smiled and continued her work, she didn't find anything suspicious about Kayn at all, he was a Saiyan after all. Kayn bowed and advanced through the 5th floor, not bothering to check the rooms he passed. The building was quite the size, it took Kayn 8 minutes to reach the seventh floor.


"Hmm, let's start here. There should be at least 2 more pure-hearted Saiyans in this Center building." Kayn spotted a room immediately upon reaching the 7th floor, there was also a desk area here with employees behind it. "This will be the first room ill check." Kayn walked pass the desk area under the gaze of the employees, they didn't say anything upon seeing Kayn's tail hovering around in the air, he did this on purpose!

Kayn looked at the woman who was laying in bed, he used his Eye of judgment and found that she only had a 99% ratio. "This woman is clearly not a fighter so how?" Kayn wondered, but didn't dwell on it and went to the next room. What he didn't know was she use to be a fighter, but quit early once she found out that she wasn't suited for it. Kayn eventually came across another woman, she had 100%, Kayn jumped for joy upon finding another "treasure." Kayn sparked a conversation with her for about an hour before asking her a favor. The woman was due in 2 weeks and could barely move, her name was Oniellia.

"Sure, I like talking to you. Maybe you could come to this big sister's house and I'll cook something good for you." Oniellia was quite a cheerful person, she really enjoyed hearing Kayn's storytelling. Kayn told stories from his world, sometime he would tell kids stories, like the 3 little pigs. He was surprised to see that she was really into such stories.

"Oniellia, we'll meet again, but I have to go." Kayn could linger about, he had other pregnant women to find and accompany. (No lecherous!)

"Okay, but come back soon, what was It.. Kayn?" Oniellia scratched her as to remember. Kayn eyebrows knitted, was this woman an airhead?

"Yes, that is my name. I will see you at a later date." Kayn got up to leave but was pulled by Oniellia, she gave him a big hug. "Ugh!" Kayn was stun by the sudden happening!

"There, there, you don't have to be so grouchy because big sis forgot your name a little." Oniellia patted Kayn back as she hugged him.

"Ugh, I understand. Thank you!" Kayn released himself from her grip. Afterward, he ran off like a rabbit who spotted a wolf.

"Hehe, What a cute little boy!" Oniellia eyes flashed as she saw Kayn runaway.

Meanwhile, Kayn had just stopped after getting away. "Man, that chick was really clingy!" Kayn was sweating a bit, but at that moment he heard a notification go off in his head.
